The effects of Water Temperature
Fish are cold blooded, which means their metabolism is strongly influenced by the temperature of their surrounding environment. Fish want to stay comfortable. Consequently, even a small change or break will cause fish to move from one location to another.
In general, this behavior varies for each species and place, so we can not specify an ideal water temperature, however as a general rule we will try to avoid the temperatures abnormally cold in summer and too warm in winter. Remember, look for the comfort zones and you will find the fish.
We consider the waves in the open sea.
The waves you will find on the shore can be slightly affected by the orientation of the coastline and the seabed of the beaches, although in most cases they are usually equivalent.

Today we will have 11 hours and 16 minutes of sun. The solar transit will be at 11:55:02 h.
The tidal coefficient today is 96. With such a high coefficient we will have big tides and the currents will also be very evident. At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 90. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 83.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Porto Frade which is of 1.4 m and a minimum height of -0.1 m.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of April of 2025.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Porto Frade, forecast in April.
Large coefficients indicate important high and low tides; major currents and movements usually take place on the sea bed. But bear in mind that this tidal amplitude may be greatly affected by the weather and you should also consult the weather forecast in Porto Frade, the wind in Porto Frade and the surf forecast in Porto Frade before you go fishing.
The moon will rise in the northeast (62°) at 8:14 h and will set in the northwest (300°) at 19:04 h.
When the solunar period coincides with sunrise or sunset, we can expect more activity than initially planned. These peak periods are reflected in green. We additionally point out in the chart the periods of greatest activity during the year with a big blue fish on the period bar + info
